In 2002 I remember having a Bad Dream and this was what made it bad. It then haunted me for about a Month untill I had another Bad Dream about Godzilla destroying our House.
And the chatter about youtube commenters continues. For good reason, apparently. Myself, i got a name-hater once. (hated the last name.) weird vid response to the right.
KING GOD CREATOR 2011 UK EARTH KINGDOMS HEAVEN. They will take this to the last second. @Number10gov My Universe I am the news. I am wrapping it all up the sky the lot. All into the size of a pea so dense nothing will lift it. Happening now a slow process with an immediate result. Is that where you all want to be, in that pea stuck in your coffins forever dead gone & forgotten. Because you are all going the right way about it.
Will you shut the fuck up. You aren't god. God doesn't have a YouTube page, a facebook wall or a Twitter account. God lives in space, and wouldn't give a damn about YouTube, Facebook, or Twitter. Scaring people not only detracts people from christianity, but since you serve 200000000 "final warnings", the people who DO believe in 2011/2012 will start to have second doubts. You are not god to man, and you are not the creator. You are a 40 year old (fake) preist in Iraq.
Where ever I go in the world I feel calm when I hear the BBC News theme.......it is strange. I have lived in Canada for 4 years now and still can't watch any other news.
It is, however, in my opinion, the most dramatic and yet subtle news overture the Beeb has ever had. All news programming is standardised with it and, despite their regional variants, it all has that beautiful heartbeat beneath it.
So the news anchors have a chance to catch their breathes, sort out their stories, finish their tea and maybe even get in a quick game of tetris while they're at it!
@APKNEWS24 for the special reports(where they interrupt a show) they usually have a 10 or 30 second countdown on cbs and abc and maybe others. it's really cool
@blakesquakers are you talking about BBC it's owned by the crown idk what that is i'm french and we have a republic but that sounds like it is state controlled idk if you live in England you problebly know more about the bbc then me
@mbarana100 It's a separate corporation which is funded by TV and radio licenses in the UK. Although there's obviously a state agreement and its funding is controlled by the state, the BBC remains independent. It's strictly un-bias politically.
@blakesquakers you can't say that any news corporation is clensed of a little bias television news gets more bias and bias everyday there was once a time when i used to watch NBC that was way back in the 90's and 80's now it has a very gross political agenda now the only news i watch is canadian news and news from europe and i see a political agenda there it's everywhere i watch the BBC and even though it is not as bad as american news i do see some bias
Its incessant but awesome the music weaves in and out of the beeps. Yep definitely BBC is better than ITV at least they don't cut their programs because of money.
The BBC has no paid advertising. Because of that, the BBC has experimented with all sorts of different filler between programs (other than previews for upcoming programs.)
Countdown clocks go very far back for the British. It's pretty embedded into the culture now, but (this is the American in me) it doesn't do all that much other than be a cultural anachronism.
You can get it at a premium from Direct TV in their world view package! But Careful .... My fellow American, once you see how the world looks at tv, you might not want to return to U.S. TV!
lolwut? what the hell does that mean. BBC News is the best on Earth, but also we Americans have some of the best shows and movies on Earth, having Los Angeles within our boundaries
american news channels don't use countdowns. news channels aside, it seems that most tv shows out there are garbage that rots the brain no matter what country you go to....(the IT crowd, excluded)
@Malbo22 It is, there is much more news, which doesn't deserved to be on the NEWS, like disputes over a bottle of milk at Walmart. The coverage of courtcases is more intense over there, i.e. reporters are standing outside the courthouse and asking people walking out. US- TV is not the same like in the UK or in Germany. Movies are cut into 5 minute time slices, that means, after 5 minutes there is an ad break. There is no "NBC" or "ABC", there is an Affiliate station which uses their FCC/CRTC (1
(2) assigned callname: like KQED is a station operated by the PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) in San Francisco, CA, or WVIT, a station for the NBC (National Broadcasting Corporation) in Connecticut. Canada uses a similar system with C numbers: CFCF is a station operated by CTV in Montreal, QC. Mexico uses X for identifiers. Japanese stations are using "J", like JOTX-TV, Tokyo TV, The difference is that beside the ident, there is the "channel number called". For WVIT it would be 30.
Verizon's FIOS service has the BBC World Service. That is a 24-hour news channel. If you have a BUDS you could probably just point the dish at the correct satellite...
i thought it was just so that all the bbc's around the world could synch in together, so if bbc america say.. got delayed for 16 seconds, and if bbc asia got delayed for 30 seconds, the program would still start at the beginning for everybody.
i can recall it started with a gong sound, midway way had keybord solo, it was from david lowe, when was tony blair first elected,sure that might be when this was played
90 seconds is long but i had a score that ran for at least 8 minutes it was during either election night or millenium countdown can anyone recall or have info about this as the hard drive that had this cut croaked about 5 years ago
In answer to thibaulthalpern below, the World Service tune is called 'Liliburlero'. Not much luck finding on YouTube, but the internet has a variety of entries. Hope this helps.
Does anyone remember BBC World Service radio around the world back in the 1980s? The announcer would say "This is London" and then a tune would begin ending on the dot of the hour and then the world news would begin. I'm trying to find that on YouTube but have no idea what to look for. Any help appreciated!
i love it so much i turn to news 24 just b4 they do the countdown and turn the tele up to max sad i listen to ova and ova again :S i esp like the new 2009 version was lucky to get it as a mp3
hi mate could you send me this mp3 aswell? i too love this countdown. i do exactly as you do every time i have the tv on just to build myself up for the news. do you think theres something wrong with us ? lol
peace friend... though times are already dark... times they are to get a little harder. an example of this : given it's unchallenged content the fact that the video material bbc reported building 7 collapse 20 minutes before it fell itself viewed over 1,000,000 times showing the british broadcasting corporation had prior knowledge of an end result of terrorist activity the collapse of world trade centre at least twenty minutes before that end became realised actuality...
This music is good, but it would be good if instead of using the normal news music on all programmes, they could use the origianal 1:00, 6:00 and 9:00 (obviously still name the news 10:00)and breakfast music from the late 80's and early 90's in the same style as David Lowe's music.
It has been this for years, it has to change soon. I just hope the next one is as good or if not better. I imagine that when we listen to this one in a few years time it will remind us of the Bush/Blair era.
There is no reason it should change. Sometimes a tune so ingrains itself with a programme it becomes unthinkable to change it ie Match of the Day/Eastenders etc. The BBC must know how popular the countdown is. They'd be mad to ever ditch it now.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the bcc seems to be losing its credibility as an impartial media outlet. it has been increasingly partial especially in its coverage of certain events. in the end it is answerable to its master who hides in the shadows.
I am from Lithuania. And BBC is my TV sets number one channel. Countdown rocks! But i miss one thing, the British voice. Smthing of a voice like it were from those old lamp radios, you know, back in coldwar era ... when an elderly gentelman in nice english accent used to say: "this is BBC". LoL, and i am only 24. Classic geting back :). My next channel thou will be euronews when i get it on cabel.
CNN is good as well, but FOOX. FOX retarded, its not news, its damn reality show there on FOX.
This is the first BBC countdown following the TOTH flag sequence. Launched in January 1999 this a fresh a new look of BBC News 24 and BBC World. BBC World used the same soundtrack and similliar visuals until 2001. I Like this video.
awesome music. the images from the field put this over the top imo. i'll never forget what it was like hearing this during the iraq war in 2003. just unbelievably powerful searing stuff.
What makes this great is that it is like a diamond Spinning in the light, it has so many facets reinforcing, resonating and complementing each other. Like the bass line,the bips,the thumping crashes, the chords in the background, the rhythmic drums, etc,reminds me a bit of the Dr Who theme with its incidental music as well !! a spinning diamond throwing out all its colours one by one. Pink Floyd unt Jean Michelle Jarre eat ur Heart out!!!
GUESS WHAT!! (you will ALL probably do this now)!!!
I have this as my wake up ALARM TONE on MY Nokia Mobile Phone. It wakes You up very well in the Morning because the tension makes you have to cancel the countdown (Hit the snooze Button) Before the Nuclear Bomb goes off, KOOL !!!
close your eyes and count to 60 and then say your dream persons name 10 times then yours 3 times. this coming thursday he will call you,tell you or text you that he/she wants to be with you forever! then send this to 5 vidios or it wont work! trust me!
If only if we had BBC here in America... The news here sucks...

This music is good, but it would be good if instead of using the normal news music on all programmes, they could use the origianal 1:00, 6:00 and 9:00 (obviously still name the news 10:00)and breakfast music from the late 80's and early 90's in the same style as David Lowe's music.

It has been this for years, it has to change soon. I just hope the next one is as good or if not better. I imagine that when we listen to this one in a few years time it will remind us of the Bush/Blair era.

There is no reason it should change. Sometimes a tune so ingrains itself with a programme it becomes unthinkable to change it ie Match of the Day/Eastenders etc. The BBC must know how popular the countdown is. They'd be mad to ever ditch it now.

the bcc seems to be losing its credibility as an impartial media outlet. it has been increasingly partial especially in its coverage of certain events. in the end it is answerable to its master who hides in the shadows.

I am from Lithuania. And BBC is my TV sets number one channel. Countdown rocks! But i miss one thing, the British voice. Smthing of a voice like it were from those old lamp radios, you know, back in coldwar era ... when an elderly gentelman in nice english accent used to say: "this is BBC". LoL, and i am only 24. Classic geting back :). My next channel thou will be euronews when i get it on cabel.
CNN is good as well, but FOOX. FOX retarded, its not news, its damn reality show there on FOX.

This is the first BBC countdown following the TOTH flag sequence. Launched in January 1999 this a fresh a new look of BBC News 24 and BBC World. BBC World used the same soundtrack and similliar visuals until 2001. I Like this video.

awesome music. the images from the field put this over the top imo. i'll never forget what it was like hearing this during the iraq war in 2003. just unbelievably powerful searing stuff.

What makes this great is that it is like a diamond Spinning in the light, it has so many facets reinforcing, resonating and complementing each other. Like the bass line,the bips,the thumping crashes, the chords in the background, the rhythmic drums, etc,reminds me a bit of the Dr Who theme with its incidental music as well !! a spinning diamond throwing out all its colours one by one. Pink Floyd unt Jean Michelle Jarre eat ur Heart out!!!

Już się pogubiłem: w mojej kablówce był kanał BBC World a teraz jest BBC World News. To to samo co ten tutaj BBC News 24?
